Building English Vocabulary--Exotic Animals This animated video helps build English vocabulary related to exotic animals found in the jungle environment. Each word is said with a picture and word is used in a sentence. Students will easily be able to connect word with picture. This is a great resource for the early childhood classroom and for our ELL students. (2:51)Author(s): No creator set

The Prestige and the Money ? the Main Goal and the Main Tool in Planning of the City Image in the 21 This paper discusses the process of changing in the historical town ? Baku in Azerbaijan in comparison to the achievements of European urban planners and architects (for example in: Paris, Vienna, Dublin). In Baku the fast and unlimited development and many investments in the public spaces have caused a lot of transformation not always to the better vision of the image of the city. At the same time, the development in some European cities is proceeding in other ways, preserving existing historicAuthor(s): Agajew, Maria

Architecture as Drawing, Perception and Cognition This work is about realizing that human perception is inherent to architecture. It is an asset and a trait subject to training and development in an empirical way, involving physical and manual action. It cannot be taught literally through convention and logic reasoning. It is a human achievement of great significance built on intellectual and scientific knowledge. It is something, being physical and empirical, that is supported on instrumental procedure. The computer, as a machine and an instruAuthor(s): Agostinho, Francisco Santos

A Format for a Graphical Communications Protocol This article describes the requirements for a graphical format on which a graphical on-line communications protocol can be based. It is argued that on-line graphical communications is similar to graphical session capture, and thus the author proposes an interactive graphical communications format using the GKSM session metafile. The discussion includes items that complement the GKSM metafile such as a format for on-line interactive exchange. One key application area of such a format is multimediAuthor(s): Aguilar, Lorenzo

Creating a City Administration System (CAS) using Virtual Reality in an Immersive Collaborative Envi Current problems in administration of a city are found to be decentralized and noninteractive for an effective city management. This usually will result in inconsistencies of decision-making, inefficient services and slow response to a particular action. City administration often spends more money, time and human resource because of these problems. This research demonstrates our research and development of creating a City Administration System (CAS) to solve the problems stated above. The task oAuthor(s): Ahmad Rafi, M.E. and Mohd Fazidin, J.

In Part E you have had the opportunity to appreciate the relationship between the EU law and the domestic law of the EU member states. The principles guiding this relationship do not form part of the founding treaties of the EU but have been distilled by the ECJ from the aims of the Community as set out in those founding treaties. You have been introduced to:

the principle of supremacy: in cases of conflict EU law prevails over the domestic law

CPU basics What is a "computer processor"?
A computer processor is the brain of the computer. It is the piece of hardware that handles all the calculations that go on inside the computer. When you click on something, that goes to the processor. The computer processor determines what you want to do based on the software that you're running, and makes the calculations, and then you see the result of that on your screen.Author(s): No creator set

Agent Provocateur - BIM In The Academic Design Studio Building Information Modeling challenges academia to question the fundamental roles of abstraction and simulation in design education. Architectural education and practice assume a traditional set of visual conventions at varied scales and levels of detail, that when taken in concert signifies a whole, complete idea of a building, a correspondence between design intent and interpretation, between the representation of ideas and the design of buildings. BIM viewed as provocateur to these assumptiAuthor(s): Ambrose, Michael A.

Dispositivos esc?picos para a media??o do olhar This work will discuss how the contemporary technological devices, that act like mediators of the gaze, can leverage a global voyeurism in an already established scopophilic and surveillance-panopticism culture. This analysis will be done from a perspective within the art and technology, where productions in contemporary visual arts resort to this state of affairs to propose their poetics and to present a critical and reflective reading about a society, facing a reality where privacy and individAuthor(s): Aldo Lu?s Pedrosa da Silva Aldo Pedrosa

The Reconstruction of the Past: The Application of New Techniques for Visualization and Research in This paper focuses on the visualization of historical architecture. The application of new Computer-Aided- Architectural-Design techniques for visualization on micro computers provides a technique for reconstructing and analyzing architectural objects from the past. The pilot project describes a case study in which the historical transformation of a town will be analyzed by using three- dimensional CAD models in combination with bitmap textures. The transformation of the historic town will be viAuthor(s): Alkhoven, Patricia

Towards Comprehensive Space: A context for the programming/design of cybrids Cybrids have been presented as mixed realities: spatial, architectural compositions comprised of physical and cyberspaces (Anders 1997). In order to create a rigorous approach to the design of architectural cybrids, this paper offers a model for programming their spaces. Other than accepting cyberspaces as part of architecture?s domain, this approach is not radical. Indeed, many parts of program development resemble those of conventional practice. However, the proposition that cyberspaces shouldAuthor(s): Anders, Peter

A run time exchange of component information between CAD and object models: A standard interface Integrated computer aided design could only occur in engineering once CAD systems could represent physical features and components rather than graphical primitives. In most dedicated CAD systems, the knowledge of a complete component exists only for the duration of each drawing command and the data stored in the database is simply a set of graphic primitives. This paper proposes an approach for real time information transfer frAuthor(s): Alshawi, M.
